*Hoping that my advice isn't somewhere in Fnord's exhaustive reply* Firstly, everybody has writer's block so don't stress. Be patient. One way that might break it is to consider three things: The audience . Who are you writing for? How will this affect you're writing? The purpose . Why are you writi...

If you think there's a bit of a vibe between you two find some way of asking her out! In my experience the best time when you're at school is in between classes or actually in class (when she isn't in a group). Otherwise, there's stuff like Facebook or Whatsapp or whatever you guys use. It's around ...

My immediate reaction to the accusations was that people were trying to take him down. Not that the accusations are false but that they are being inflated to something more than they are. But any man has to realize that intention isn't the full story. A man can have perfectly good intentions but sti...

It depends on what kind of field your hoping to go into. There's no benefit in learning to code if you're going to be a teacher for example, unless it is for personal development/entertainment. Perhaps as soon as the student decides they want to focus on a field where coding is useful. Physics for e...

The best advice I can give is to keep engaging with therapy. A lot of people make the mistake of holding back with their therapist because some stuff is hard to articulate or you don't want to talk about the real issue. In my experience, when you fully open up to your therapist and be totally honest...

No it doesn't sound like you did anything wrong. These people probably thought they didn't have to be nice or express genuine condolences because you guys are not on good terms. Or maybe they have just moved on with their life and aren't interested in engaging with you. Whatever the reason, these pe...

You have to work on yourself first. If you aren't happy with yourself, it will be hard for others to find you attractive. and I don't mean in the physical sense, because someone will love/care about you no matter what your physical appearance might be. It really doesn't matter how old you are. Unti...

Even if he didn't actually take his shirt off surely it's inappropriate to joke about taking shirts off in the office? To your question, it sounds like he was flirting, albeit very strangely. If he was actually that hot he would have just done something about it instead of vocalizing it like that to...

I think the trick is not to control them but to see them as just thoughts. Thoughts only have as much power as you allow them to have. As a previous therapist put it to me:

'Don't try to win the tug of war: just drop the rope.'

Can you connect with her via social media? If you don't see each other often that might be your best bet, assuming she isn't currently with anyone.

Is this related to any challenges with empathy/sympathy that I have read may affect individuals on the spectrum. Any insights would be very much appreciated. Thank you. Just an important point of clarity, people on the spectrum generally don't have issues with feeling empathy, it's more a problem o...

Based on what you've shared it is perfectly understandable that sometimes you will panic about this stuff. Your mind is obsessively trying to anticipate a potential relationship problem or even a break-up, in order to mitigate the pain that would come with that scenario. It does this out of fear of ...

It depends on the guy. Some guys are very superficial and their interest will be based on stuff like size and height etc. Some guys will hinge their interest on your passions and interests and what you talk about. Personally I think most guys fall somewhere in between (although who knows these days)...

My advice would be to shift your focus onto the good parts of your relationship, physical or emotional. When you find yourself in the situations you describe try and do a couple of things: 1. Most importantly, DO NOT (I say again DO NOT ) chide or berate yourself at any point. Anxiety is a funny thi...
